I think you can do this by creating a new arc_mksound() function and pointing kd_mksound() to it. This is what the Amiga and so on do about this problem. I don't know how well it will work with your new console driver, but take a look at drivers/char/vt.c and arch/m68k/amiga/config.c as a starting point.
